Galatians 4:19

"My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you,"

Beloved, do you know that God wants you to be an influence for Him in our generation, He really wants us to affect people for Him with the gospel; and for us to do this we must be prayer-full. Prayer is a vehicle that carries our words to the right destination, which is into the heart of people.

The communion we share with the Father in prayer is our privilege in Christ Jesus, it does not come cheap, it is a labor, in which you must give yourself to. Apostle Paul testified of Epaphras,

"...always labouring fervently for you in prayers that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God." -Colossians. 4:12.

When you pray for people, you pray from the position of authority that Jesus Christ has given you. You pray with passion for the changes you expect in the lives of people, you carry their burden and solve it through prayers. That was what Paul the Apostle did as he puts it in his letter to the saints in Galatia.

"My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you," Galatians 4:19.

You can actually chart a course for your life through prayers, prayer helps to establish and strengthen our relationship with God. Always note that the more you make an impact on people through prayers, the more you make impact on your life.

Are you aware that prayer is the life-wire of the Christian? It is having fellowship with God. Through prayer you share your thoughts with the Father and put everything under control in your life.

Do you know that a man of prayer cannot be destroyed? he is never a victim in life. When you pray, pray with the knowledge of the word of God, you cannot receive answers to your prayers if it is outside the word of God, your prayer is the witness and the testimony of the Lordship of Jesus in your life. Therefore, mix your prayer with faith and obedience then add reverence, pray with all intensity of the spirit and you will how your life and the lives of others will be affected tremendously.

You're blessed!
